One of the best Azeri entries of all. The synchronization is almost 100% spot-on between Farid and his choreographer, and his voice is strong. Love from the USA! 🇺🇸❤️🇦🇿
I see a lot of people who don't like this entry. I think this is absolutely brilliant though, one of my faves of 2013 even when I first watched it as a kid.
My winner of ESC 2013 and thanks to the Greeks for helping and arranging such a performance for us, this is a very emotional and unforgettable event, as well as the best, in my opinion, in the entire history of Azerbaijan in this competition. And I also want to say thank you to Farid, and that we will not forget him, even if he finishes his singing career
I didn't know all the history behind this performance and staging. The dancer in the glass box was already on stage near Ani Lorak several years before. His performance is stunning and breathtaking. I found the choreography quite audacious, especially coming from a country which isn't, like Turkey and Russia, famous for its tolerance to the LGBTQIA community. Yes, Farid deserves the victory way more than Emmelie De Forrest, which song was good but with too repetitive lyrics. I found very suspicious that Denmark won in Sweden, as we all know they are neighbour countries. What does Farid Mammadov do now ?
Ahh bu mahnı 🤤 heç vaxt bezmərəm dinləməkdən. Qatı bir eurovision fanı deyiləm amma, bu mahnı ənnn sevdiyim entry'sidir ölkəmizin. 2-ci olduqdan sonra Fərid sanki küsdü getdi 🙁
A masterful and elegant staging that hypnotizes with Farid's professional attitude as the singer of the song. The symmetry of movements between the two boys is amazing (1:47) as well as the entrance of the girl in red on stage (2:00) with that stylized dress that perfectly details her spine. Delicacy and perfection brought to life by Azerbaijan.
I didn't enjoy Lonely planet from 2013 at all, but I really like Aram Mp3 - Not Alone! Amazing voice and I think he is handsome lol, Valentina and Aram were my top 2 of 2014! Also RIP Hayko from 2007!
But Denmark received points from 38 countries and Azerbaijan only from 29. That's why the final score is so important (47 points) between both artists : 281 points for Emmelie vs 234 for Farid.
I remember as if yesterday were when I watched live at home Malmö 2013 and this performance of Farid Mammadov from Azerbaijan caught all my attention with all staging packed!!! Hold Me was my winner entry that year although only after discovering all entry with staging during the rehearsal because as a Song "I Feed You My Love" was the best and I thought during the Grand Final live Margaret Berger would win. Greetings from Spain🇪🇸
Dear farid gasimov, if you read this, you should know that Azerbaijan very strong in eurovision as my country( Russia) and i wish our successes will never ends!
Eynisini düşünürdüm. 2013-dən sonra bir də ilk 5 - ə girə bilmədik. İlk 10-a güclə giririk. Heç elə olur, finala da çıxa bilmirik. Siyasi oyuna çeviriblər yarışı. Amma yenə də bizim də tam odur, qalibiyyətə layiqdir deyəcəyimiz mahnı, performans, müğənni çıxmır ki, deyək haqqımız yeyilir.
I have noticed that, when this channel upload a video about Azerbaijan some people begin to be jealous..what is your problem with our country? You don't have to judge any country or anything if you don't have any idea about it..
°LYRICS🇦🇿¹³° Should have seen it coming when I saw you Should have had the sense to stop and walk away It was gonna turn out complicated We've hit overload, about to explode If love was a mountain I'd climb up to the highest of them all I'd swim across the ocean if you'd call I'm lost in your smile Freefalling for miles Hold me, just unfold me Unchain my soul, give me love, make me whole Hold me, if it's only for this moment in time Now I'm yours and you're mine So hold me Take a little time then you'll know better Then to think about giving in on the one you love Can we go back and freeze the moment?

Oh ! They're remastering the great ones?!?!! YESSSS!!!! This is one of the first songs when I accidentally discovered Eurovision while searching for a specific sailormoon video!
I am almost scared to show appreciation for this upload as the last time I did someone seemed cross that my comment didn't match up with the online date. Alas, here I am three hours after this upload saying thank you.
"Hold Me" by Farid Mammadov is a heartfelt song that expresses the desire for love, connection, and emotional support. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and vulnerability, as well as a plea for someone to hold and cherish the singer. In the first verse, the lyrics suggest that the singer may have seen the complications and potential difficulties in the relationship from the beginning. Despite this realization, they couldn't resist the strong attraction they felt. The mention of hitting overload and feeling like they're about to explode reflects the intensity of their emotions. The chorus emphasizes the need for the other person to hold and unfold the singer, to unchain their soul and bring them love and completeness. It portrays a longing for emotional intimacy and a desire to be embraced and cherished. In the second verse, the lyrics acknowledge that taking time and gaining a better understanding of the situation might have led to a different outcome. There is a sense of reflection on past freedom and simplicity when it was just the two of them, before complications arose. The bridge reflects on the memories of laughter shared between the two and the desire to find strength to move forward despite running from the past. It highlights the importance of holding on to love and not wanting to spend another night alone. Overall, "Hold Me" conveys a yearning for emotional connection and the desire to be held, understood, and loved. It explores the complexities of relationships and the longing for a deep and meaningful connection with another person. The song's touching nature and emotional appeal resonated with audiences, contributing to its success at the Eurovision Song Contest.
A remarkable concept which skyrockets the song!! Alexander Kuzmenko's performance is very central to the sensational outcome, and not too much recognised! The real winner for 2013!
That bridge and last course really carried this either song, it goes SO HARD! I can you not. Also along with that thing they did the second verse that was really cool.
Eurovision'un en ilgi çekici performanslarından biri bence.
Camdaki adamın nefessiz bir şekilde şarkıcıyla aynı hareketleri yapması beni çok etkiledi

Should have seen it coming when I saw you
Should have had the sense to stop and walk away
It was gonna turn out complicated
We've hit overload, about to explode
If love was a mountain
I'd climb up to the highest of them all
I'd swim across the ocean if you'd call
I'm lost in your smile
Freefalling for miles
Hold me, just unfold me
Unchain my soul, give me love, make me whole
Hold me, if it's only for this moment in time
Now I'm yours and you're mine
So hold me
Take a little time then you'll know better
Then to think about giving in on the one you love
Can we go back and freeze the moment?
Where we used to be free, was only you and me
Hold me, just unfold me
Unchain my soul, give me love, make me whole
Hold me, if it's only for this moment in time
Now I'm yours and you're mine
Remember how we used to laugh
But now you're running from the past
Let's find a way to carry on
Remember how love used to be
You said I was your fantasy
Can't take another night alone
So come on home
Hold me, just unfold me
Unchain my soul, give me love, make me whole
Hold me, if it's only for this moment in time
Now I'm yours and you're mine
So hold me

Banger with a nice staging
"Hold Me" by Farid Mammadov is a heartfelt song that expresses the desire for love, connection, and emotional support. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and vulnerability, as well as a plea for someone to hold and cherish the singer.
In the first verse, the lyrics suggest that the singer may have seen the complications and potential difficulties in the relationship from the beginning. Despite this realization, they couldn't resist the strong attraction they felt. The mention of hitting overload and feeling like they're about to explode reflects the intensity of their emotions.
The chorus emphasizes the need for the other person to hold and unfold the singer, to unchain their soul and bring them love and completeness. It portrays a longing for emotional intimacy and a desire to be embraced and cherished.
In the second verse, the lyrics acknowledge that taking time and gaining a better understanding of the situation might have led to a different outcome. There is a sense of reflection on past freedom and simplicity when it was just the two of them, before complications arose.
The bridge reflects on the memories of laughter shared between the two and the desire to find strength to move forward despite running from the past. It highlights the importance of holding on to love and not wanting to spend another night alone.
Overall, "Hold Me" conveys a yearning for emotional connection and the desire to be held, understood, and loved. It explores the complexities of relationships and the longing for a deep and meaningful connection with another person. The song's touching nature and emotional appeal resonated with audiences, contributing to its success at the Eurovision Song Contest.
